Rob Leclerc shares a personal anecdote: in 2015 he met a tall man in a cowboy hat with a South African accent who claimed to run a family office and was a fan of his newsletter, even offering him a ride home after knee surgery. Weeks later he learned it was Kimbal Musk, and credits the encounter for his positive opinion of the Musk family.
